“Sunflower seeds: a friend to the heart and arteries”

Why are sunflower seeds good for the heart? Vitamin E and antioxidants fight inflammation and protect arteries from damage. The image of the artery shows us why we need to combat “clotting and fat.” They contain healthy fats, including unsaturated fats like those found in nuts. These fats help lower bad cholesterol (LDL). Magnesium and potassium are two important minerals for regulating blood pressure and keeping the heart functioning properly. The heart in the picture needs them. Fiber helps reduce cholesterol absorption from food. How to eat them? A small handful, like the one in the picture, is enough per day. Add them to salads, yogurt, or eat them on their own.
